I'm so glad I found your channel! I'm raising my son in French (my non-native language) and English. It is really wonderful to hear of someone else raising a multilingual child in their non-native language. James' English is wonderful! I'm sure I'll have lots of questions about raising a multilingual child as my son ages. He is only 2 right now. 🙂
Hi! Thank you so much for your lovely comment and good luck on your bilingual journey! Please feel free to post any questions you might have - I’m always looking for ideas for new episodes 😊
My jesteśmy na początku naszej nauki języków. Mam nadzieję że uda mi się nauczyć moje dziecko polskiego w anglojęzycznym kraju. Widząc że innym się to udaje jest to z pewnością zachętą. Dziękuję!
Hi. James is such a cutie boy! I am a linguist and I would like to know in which country James is raised and how often does he speak French please? Only with daddy or with someone else too?
Hi, Angelore. Thank you, that’s very sweet of you to say! James spent the first year of his life in France and now we live in Poland. He speaks French with his dad every day (2-3 hours on average) and chats with his French grandparents and/or other family members over videocall once or twice a month. He also listens to French audio stories daily for about half an hour.
